Wild Ducklings up Close, Quarry Hill, Rochester, MN
Beautiful day for a hike through Quarry Hill park, MN and a Visit to the Nature center. View from up top. Wait until you see how close we get to these wild ducks and ducklings in the pond.
Quarry Hill Visit
One of our favorite things to do at SMB is get people together from all the different departments of the company and take fun trips together. Recently we took a crew of people out to the Quarry Hill Nature Center here in Rochester. Everyone had fun hiking, exploring the woods and even an old cave. It was fascinating to hear about how patients at the old state hospital dug the cave out of the sandstone in order to store food in the hot summer months before there were refrigerators. It also served as a chance to reflect on how far the mental health services industry has come and how we can continue to push it forward. If you're in the southeast Minnesota area, be sure to check out Quarry Hill!

My exploring started back in 1985. I started doing research to find places (Abandonments, Drains, Caves and so on) so as to not just find them, but learn every detail I could before infiltrating. Last thing I want is to get hurt, busted or killed. I will Not divulge any whereabouts of any place. The most important thing is to get permission before exploring any private property.
Urban Exploring is dangerous and in some cases illegal. Do not attempt to repeat the actions you see in this video. You could get hurt, killed or arrested. Get permission before exploring any abandoned or underground place.

Quarry Hill Cave Tour
The cave was carved to serve as a cellar for the storage of many vegetables grown on the State Hospital farm. A crew of six men from the State Hospital dug the series of caves out of St. Peter sandstone. One of the patients, a man by the name of Thomas Coyne, led this crew. Coyne was a poet, as evidenced by the lines of poetry he carved into the walls of the cave. Coyne's name and a few remaining words of his poem can still be seen today on the wall of the middle entrance just before the first storage room.
